The natives lead you through the woods to an Indian-looking village. One of them greets you in Common Tongue. "Greetings, Brush-tailed One! You and youre holy servant shall bed here for the time being, and we shall watch over your silent steed of flight. But where are my manners? I am Wezza, the Healer of the Wakachaka tribe of Wicket.  In case you did not know, Brush-tailed One, Gub Dub means just that.  The patrol leader that met you, Wlakk, says that you cursed them ill fate and other things I should not mention here.  I understand you do not know of the Wicket tongue, but you must go through the Penance for cursing ill fate to another of the Tongued Beings.  You may be a great Gub Dub, but all must perform the Penance.  But anyways, stay here with us, and bring your silent servant along with you."

Wherever you pass, Wickets bow to you and call, "Gub dub." At the Penance, a clan meeting, Wezza speaks to the Wickets, and translates to you. He says that you must perform "The jumping of one foot while calling 'Hot hot hot hot hot!' to all the Wakachaka," the celebration cry "Heya whoop whoop whoop!" and the "Walk of the duck whilst calling 'Aunka aunka aunka!' before all the Wakachaka."

So do you get what the Penance really is?
